TERRIFIC SLUGGING.
Minneapolis and Eau Claire Ham
mer the Ball About at Will.

Yesterdays game between Mime
apolis and Eau Claire was the greatest
batting exhibition seen on the grounds
this season. If both sides had not
played sharp fielding game, there
would have been a very large score run
up. Both Winkleman's and Tucker
mans arms were in bad shape and
neither of them had much if any con-
troll of the ball. Ten of the visitors
were donated first base on balls, and
another by being hit by the ball. Quest
has not forgotten all of his old tricks.
In the eighth inning, when a man was
on second running he knocked the ball
over the second baseman'S head, and
while the umpire was watching the man
coming in from third he cut first base
by more than twenty feet, Murphy did
not see him. and so he did not call him
out. He got twO-base hit instead of
a single by. the play. Minneapolis
scored three in the first on three hits, a
wild pitch and an error. In the second
kreig made tremendous hit and
laid the ball over the garden walI'' for
home run. In the third one more was
added by PattOn'S brilliant base run
ming, stealing second, third rand home.
Five hits and wild pitch in the fourth
added four more. In the fifth four sin
giles and StriefS three-bagger yielded
four more. Minneapolis only scored
one more, which was made in the sixth
on .Winkleman's three-bagger and
Howes' single. The visitors made two
in the fourth on two singles and three
Dagger. In the fifth Winkleman's arm
began to give out, and four runs were
scored by two bases on balls, a single
and two three-baggers by Ingraham and
McCullom. Two bases on balls, single,
a twO-bagger, Ingraham's three-bagger
and Shaw'S error added five more in the
eighth. In the ninth the excitement
ran high. Cross made a single and
Quest knocked to Shaw, who threw
Cross out at second and Strict threw to
first in time to cut Quest off, making a
very neat double play. The batting of
Patton, Foster, Howes, Ingraham and
McCullom, together with the fielding of
Shaw, Quest. Reilly and Lowe were fea-
lures. Low made a magnificent catch
of fly against the left field fence,
which brought down the audience of
900. Patton took the honors of the day,
making hit every time at the bat, and
stole three bases. Thomas Murphy, a
substitute. umpired. and, if anything,
favored the visiting team. Following
is the official score:

Yesterdays game between st. Paul
and Duluth was the prettiest contest
seen in st. Paul this season, and proba-
bly, had more remarkable features about
1t than any game so far played in the
Northwestern league. Neither pitcher
gave man base on balls, and there
was but one wild pitch and one passed
ball. St Paul had but six hits and Du-
luth but four. Only two runs were
scored by st. Paul and only one by Du-
luth Duluth had but twenty-nine times
at bat and st. Paul but thirty-one, and
only one man was left on base on each
side. This gives pretty fair idea to
those who did not attend of-show close
the game was. Every point was played
for all there was i'll it by both teams.
and the result shows how fiercely the
fight was waged. SowderS and BrewS-
ter both had perfect control of the ball,
and neither was hit to any extent,
though the former had trifie the best
of it. Cleveland's fielding was magnifi-
cent, every one of his stops and throws
being of the most difficult character.
Crooks made one pretty catch, and all
the rest of the home team did their work
In a cOmmendable manner. For the
visitors the catch of Crooks fly by
Quinn was the neateSt piece of work.
The game was begun at $3.50 promptly,
and ended in an hour and half. Muir
ply opened the game with a fine two
base drive to left center-the only hit
for more than one base during the con-
teSt-went to third on wild pitch, and
scored on Wilmot's out to center. Du-
luth tied the score in the seventh on
Scheibeck'S hit and steal to second and
third and Kemmler's wild throw. In
the ninth Murphy got first on fielder'S
choice, stole second, and scored on Will
mOt'S hit to right. Burch skinned one
of his arms in sliding to second and re-
tired, Dillon taking his place. The
score follows:

THE CHICAGO ANARCHISTS.
A Positive Statement That They
Must Hang.

CHICAGO, Aug. 31.-The Herald this
morning says the seven condemned an
archists are to hang. There is no longer
any doubt about that. Information has
been received through reliable sources
that the supreme court will affirm the
death verdict against the anarchists
when they meet at Ottawa next Monday.
The opinion in the case will then be
filed by the justice who made it, and it
will receive the signatures of all the
other justices, who, it would appear,
are fully acquainted with its contents.
No justice of the supreme court has
given out this intelligence directly, all
of them, i'll fact, refuse to talk about
the decision, but to friend who re-
Magruder guardedly said: ''There will
be no dissenting opinion, because the
justices are all of one mind.''
Chief of Police EberSold and Sheriff
MatsOn have already received an init
nation of what is coming, and they have
been making active preparations to
meet any emergency that NAV arise.
Chief Ebersold declined yesterday to
admit that he had received any direct
news from the supreme court, though it
is known that the judges of the court
promised him last February to put him
on his guard if they thought it neces-
sary to do so. That Sheriff MatSon has
also received direct intimation of the
action of the court is evidenced by the
extraordinary precautions he has been
taking lately in keeping suspicious
persons out of the jail. Everybody who
calls to see the anarchists is closely
watched while in the Jail, and not few
visitors are denied admission

SAco, Me-, Aug. 31.-The biggest SEN
sation Saco has ever experienced devel-
oped this morning, when it was learned
that the Saco and Riddefore Savings in
stitution has seriously suffered financi-
ally through a young clerk who alb
seconded. Frank G. McNeilly, nineteen
years old, who has been employed in the
bank about one year, has mysteriOusly
disappeared taking with him $500 in
cash, United States registered 4 per
cent. bonds, payable in 1907, amounting
to $185,0O0, and railroad, municipal and
other bonds, amounting, as near as now
can be determined, to about 1871, 900.
Though he left town Monday afternoon,
yet bank officers and the family have
kept the matter SO quiet that the news
did not leak out until this morning.
Great excitement prevails here, as Nc
Nelly was considered one of the most
trustworthy young men of the city.
President, trustees and cashier placed
the greatest confidence in him. He.was
acquainted with the combination of
every lock in the bank vaults. Detect
ives have been engaged and sent in
all directions. A dozen of McNeilly'S
photographs have been found in bank
drawer and have been placed in the
hands of detectives. McNeiIly is five
feet eleven inches, weighs 145 pounds,
dark hair, smooth face, fair complexion,
stands very erect when walking, is of
good figure and would be called hand
some. When he left he had on a light
mixed coat, dark WorSted pants and con-

A Missing Treasurer.

CLEVELAND, Aug. 31.-A special
from Wapakonetta, Auglaize county,
says there is great excitement in that
place over the absence of Israel Lucas,
the county treasurer. Lucas left town
Sunday night with his wife, saying he
was going to Toledo. His nephew and
deputy were left in charge of the treas
ury. The young man expected his uncle
home yesterday, but when. he failed to
come the matter was reported to the
county commissioners. They at once
counted the funds of the treasury and
discovered that over ISL 900 was miss
ing. A meeting of the commissioners
is called for tomorrow, when thorough
investigation will be made Lucas
friends insist that he will return all
right, and these believe that the miss
ing money has been deposited some
where.

A DESPERATE FIGHT
Which Resulted ia the Death of
Several EIen.

Several 2Ien.
SANTA FE, n. NJ. Aus 31.-A bloody
tragedy occurred at Meadville mining
camp, near Good Hops, or Friday last.
Albert Mead, K. Ell. Mead, Joseph Down
ing and Fred Mead, two years ago, or
ganiZed the Las Tuces milling and min
ing company, some twenty miles west
of PiedraS station, on the Denver & Rio
dissatisfied and accused the company of
bad faith, extravagant management,an
sued the company to regain possession
of the mine. Fred Mead brought a coun-
ter suit to recover 81, 800 loaned to AL
bert. Pending this litigation Albert has
been employed in this city as carpen-
ter. His conflict appeared to Worry him,
and he threatened to get possession of
the mine even if ne had to kill every
man in the company. On Wednesday
last he left for the camp to secure pa
pers he had left in the cOmpany'S house,
and which he needed in his suit. What
followed is told by Fred, the surviving
member of the party. When Albert
Mr.. Hands were in Tres Piedras. On
Friday morning, when their team was
within fifty yards of the camp, Albert
stepped from the brush, Winchester in
hand, and ordered halt. He then or
dered Hands to call Harvey Mead and
Downing from the cabin. Mead and
Downing came out, Albert fired and
Downing fell dead. A second shot
killed Harvey Mead and third fatally
wounded Hands. Fred Mead attempted
to fire at Albert, but the weapon
snapped. Finally the two men clinched
and struggled for the weapon, Fred Sc
curing it and shooting Albert through
the heart. Hands died five hours later.
The coroner acquitted Fred Mead.

CataTTh TO Consumption.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next
to and undoubtedly leads on to consumption.
1t is therefore singular that those afflicted
with this fearful disease should not make it
the object of their lives to rid themselves of
it. Deceptive remedies concocted by ignor-
ant pretenders to medical knowledge have
weakened the confidence of the great major
ity of suffers in all advertised remedies.
They become resigned to a life of misery
rather than torture themselves with doubtful
palliatives.
But this will never do Catarrh must be
met at every stage and combated with all our
might. In many cases the disease has as
sumed dangerous symptoms. The bones and
cartilage of the nose, the organs of hearing,
of seeing and of tasting so affected as to be
useless, the uvula so elongated. the throat SO
infiamed and irritated as TO produce con,
slant and distressing cough.
SANFORD RADICAL CURE meets every phase
of Catarrh. from simple head cold to the
most loathsome and destructive stages. 1t is
local and constitutional. Instant in reliev-
ing, permanent in curing, safe, economical
and never failing.

PRANZTNI ExECUTED.
The Head of the Noted Partisan
Washer Cut OFF.


PARIS, Aug. 31.-Pranzini, the muir
derer of Mime. Regnault, her maid and
her maids child, was guillotined at s
O'Clock this morning. He made no con-
fession. Vast crowds waited about the
place of execution during the whole of
the night and kept up constant howl
ing and yelling. The din was horrible.
When the chaplain arrived, at 4:30 a.
M, the mass Of people was so great that
he was almost prevented from reaching
the gate of the prison. Pranzini
marched from his cell to the scaffold
with firm step and defiant air. When
the executi0ners seized him the muir
derer resisted and fought desperately,
declaring that they must let him alone.
The eXecutioners Overpowered him and
threw him on the machine and in an in
slant had him securely bound. Imme-
dlately the terrible knife was started.
1t descended with horrible slOwness at
hrst, but then its movement quickened
and the head of the murderer rolled
into the basket. The mob outside be-
came very disorderly during the pro-
gress of the execution. The head was
at once placed in a wagon and carried at
gallop to the Ivry cemetery, where it
was buried after the regular funeral
ceremony had been performed over it.
The faculty of medicine claimed the
body and it was surrendered to them.

IN PARLIAMENT.
The Commons Discuss the Cues
ton OF BoycOtting.

LONDON, Aug. 31.-Mr. Sexton re-
sumed in the house of commons this
evening the debate on the vote for the
Irish secretary's office. He denied the
accuracy of the governments report on
the number of people boycotted. The
reports produced by Mr.. Balfour, chief
secretary for Ireland. asserted in gen.
eral that 1,700 persons in Ireland had
either suffered from bOycOtting or been
protected from it by the government.
Mr. Balfour, however, refused to pro-
duce the details of these reports. The
official return, on the other hand, certi-
fed that for the whole of the quarter
ending with June there were but fiji
teen acts of intimidation throughout the
whole of Ireland. Continuing, Mr..
Sexton said that if the government
would abandon the policy of whisper
and give such information as
would enable the house to sift
Mr.. Balfour's statement, the Par
nelliteS would not protract the debate
AT this point Nh. Balfour said he adj
hered to the accuracy of his statement
in the returns. Mr.. Sexton referred to
the fact that boycotting was not included
in the weapons used for self-protection
by the Irish people in the earlier stages
of the leagues existence. Boycotting
did not perhaps exist without intimida-
ton, but the machinery of the league
was so perfect now that it was unneces-
Sary to resort to intimidation in order to
compel persons to respect the verdict of
the league. MIR. Dillon declared that it
was his intention to challenge English
public opinion on the whole question of
boycotting: He was confident that the
majority of the English people would
condemn the action of the government.
BoycOtting as it existed in Ireland was
nothing more than peaceful exclusive
dealing similar in character to that
practiced in England and known as
trade strikes. The vote for the office
was then passed-110 to 55.

He Ventilates His Ideas ON PIay-

ST. LOUIS, Aug Sin an interview
before leaving for the East to-day, Presi-
dent Won der Abe said the Browns
would secure two men before they re-
turned home. He would not state who
they were, but intimated that they were
to be from the leading club in the Inter-
national league. President Won der
Abe also said there was now no longer
any doubt that the Browns would re-
main in the association; that he
had been guaranteed a percentage by
all the clubs. including Brooklyn. He
was in favor, however, of something
new i'll base ball, and proposed that the
last half of next season the league and
association clubs interplay, and the club
that comet out at the end of the season
with the most won games should be the
champion of the world. He was con-
fident Detroit would win the league
pennant, and had arranged to meet
President Stern in New York Friday
and make arrangements for the worlds
championship games.

LONDON, Aug. 31.-The parliamentary
election in the north division of Hunt
mgdonshire has, by its result, caused a
Keeling of qualification among the Lib
erals, and intensely disgusted the Tories
who confidently expected a majority of
at least 500. While the outcome of the
contest cannot be looked upon by the
Gladstonians as a great victory, it is
still such in moral sense, and its pop
ular effect will be almost as great as
though the Liberal candidate had been
elected. AS there was no contest in the
division at the last election, comparison
OF the present figures is necessarily
made with those of 1885, when the
Liberals were worse off by seventy-nine
votes than now, and it will thus be seen
that the reaction in favor of Mr.. Glad
stone, as indicated by the elections a
few weeks ago, has not been retarded.
The Tories are daily becoming more
certain of the fact that their alliance
with the UnionistS is doing their party
no good, and if the Conservative cleo
tors and Tory Squires could at the pres
ent moment have voice in debating
the affiliations of the party, prompt
severance of all relations with the
UnloniSts looking toward coalition
government would be the result.

FINE WORKERS.
They Were in the Loan Business
for Profit


for Profit.
New YORK, Aug. 31.-Yesterday
Judge Donahue signed an order of arrest
for Albert Meter, in suit against him
and his brother to recover 1913, 91S. II and
interest from Dec. %, 1877. The claim
foots up about $4,000. Bail was fixed
at $4,000. Meter was practically ar
rested yesterday afternoon, but appears
to have been left over night in the hands
OF some one connected with the Sheriff's
office, presumably to search for bail.
METERS counsel, ex-GOv. Hoadlv.
agreed to be responsible for the produc-
ton of his client to-day. The action
against Meter is brought by the men,
beers of the firm of Davis & Freeman,
which has been succeeded by T. p. Free
man Il Co. The order of arrest was
procured upon the allegation that the
Meters obtained the money by false
and fraudulent representations. The
case for the plaintiffs, which has been
prepared by John r. Dospassos, sets
forth that the firm of Meter d Co. rep
resented to Davis q Freeman, as. i'm
fact, they did to good many other
people who borrowed money of them,
that they were engaged in lOaning large
sums of money for institutions and
wealthy individuals, which and who
were willing to accept a
LOWER RATE of INTEREST
than was then ruling, upon condition
that the collateral should be first-class:
and that the margin between the
amount advanced upon the securities
and the market price should be wide.
In this way Meter q Co. secured a
large amount of securities which they
were able to rehypothecate for much
more money than they had advanced
upon them. They p0cketed the differ
ence,. and when. detected they alb
seconded. As a matter of fact they were
not acting as brokers for any institution
of wealthy individuals. Upon the repre-
sensations referred to, however,
MeSsrs. Davis 81 Freeman borrowed
100000 of Meter d Co. upon pledge of
$3.50, 900 first mortgage bonds of the New
York Central & Hudson River Railroad
company. The rate was per cent.
against market rate of about Z per
cent, and the margin in the loan was
about 30 per cent. When the Meter
swindle collapsed Davis & Freeman had
to recover their securities by paying, in
addition to the loan, the $4,000 the Net
tiers had made by the rehypothecation.

and Conant and Merrill, the first base
man. What was done is not yet known,
but it is thought that, on account of the
bad playing of the Boston team during
the last week, under Kelly as field cap
tain, something must be done or the
team would not be better than seventh
in the race when the season was over
On this account, it is said, the meeting

was signed by the directors.

CCHIcAGo, Aug. 31.-A special from
Mowequo, ILL.,, says: A report reached
this place yesterday of another destruc-
tive prairie fire near Radford, station
three miles south of here on the Illinois
Central railroad. A spark from loco
motive lighted the grass, and the fire
soon spread. Women with brooms, men
with clubs and water and other articles
were OH the scene to protect their
homes. The fire burned over a fifty
acre meadow, burning the fence and
destroying other property. The loss
cannot be ascertained.
